Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although they fail to fully convey the depth of the IKB pigment. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some tiny specks of media that have adhered to the recesses in isolated places and some tiny spots of burnishing to the protruding elements.

"While working on my paintings in my studio, I sometimes used sponges. Evidently, they very quickly turned blue! One day I perceived the beauty of blue in the sponge; this working tool all of a sudden became a primary medium for me. The sponge has that extraordinary capacity to absorb and become impregnated with whatever fluid, which was naturally very seductive to me" (Yves Klein 'Lecture at the Sorbonne', (1959) in: Klaus Ottmann, Overcoming the Problematics of Art: The Writings of Yves Klein, New York 2007, p. 22).
